Q: my 3 month old has a productive cough and a rattle in his chest when he eats and coughs should i be concerned?

: As long as the kid eats well, plays and remains fever free I would not be concerned. Most of these are self resolving viruses. If feeds are off as are other daily activities I would have him checked.
